I'll usually do the limit (at least), and 5-10 mph over if I "feel" I can get away with it. But, I never purposely drive slower than the limit if I have no good reason to (ie:rain, dark and rain, snow...etc.),



Same here but I have found the best revenge on tailgaters is to wait until you are in an area where they cannot pass and then sloooooow right down. The facial expressions you see in your rear view mirror are priceless..

Once they backoff then and only then do I speed up again
